Hi, I’m Roslyn Saunders, I’m a Recovery Coach,
I’ve walked the path of recovery myself, not just through my own journey with codependency, but also supporting my children and family through their battles with addiction. This lived experience, coupled with my professional qualifications, gives me a unique perspective on what truly makes a great recovery coach.
So, what exactly sets an exceptional recovery coach apart?
1. Lived Experience: The Foundation of Empathy
While qualifications are vital, I believe that true understanding often comes from having been there yourself. A great recovery coach isn’t just reciting theory; they’re drawing on their own journey, their own struggles, and their own triumphs. This allows for genuine empathy and a deep, intuitive understanding of the challenges you’re facing. When I share my own story, it’s not to focus on myself, but to show you that recovery is possible and that you’re not alone. I understand the fear, the frustration, and the profound relief that comes with taking those first steps towards change.
2. A Holistic Approach: Beyond the Surface
Recovery isn’t just about stopping a behaviour; it’s about transforming your entire life. A great recovery coach looks beyond the presenting issue – be it addiction or codependency – to address the underlying causes. This means exploring your relationships, your thought patterns, your emotional responses, and your overall well-being. My ‘daily deliberate action plan’ isn’t just a set of instructions; it’s a comprehensive framework designed to help you rebuild your life from the ground up, addressing all aspects of your physical, mental, and emotional health.
3. Practical Tools and Strategies: Actionable Steps for Change
Empathy and understanding are crucial, but they need to be coupled with practical, actionable strategies. A great coach provides you with the tools you need to navigate challenging situations, manage cravings, set healthy boundaries, and build a strong support network. My background in Neuro-linguistic Programming (NLP) allows me to equip you with effective techniques to shift your mindset and behaviours, empowering you to create lasting change. It’s about giving you the roadmap and the skills to drive your own recovery.
4. Unwavering Support and Accountability: Your Partner in Progress
The road to recovery can be bumpy, and a great coach is your steadfast support system. They hold you accountable for your commitments, celebrate your successes, and gently guide you through setbacks. It’s about creating a safe, non-judgmental space where you feel heard, understood, and encouraged to keep moving forward, even when it feels tough. I’m here to remind you of your strength and resilience, and to help you rediscover your own inner resources.
5. A Focus on Empowerment: Inspiring Greatness Within You
Ultimately, a great recovery coach doesn’t “fix” you; they empower you to fix yourself. They see your inherent strength and guide you to tap into your own wisdom and capabilities. My goal is to inspire greatness in you, to help you discover your own pathway to recovery and to live a life that is fulfilling and authentic. It’s about you taking ownership of your journey and building a future free from the grip of codependency and addiction.
Are you ready to discover the path to your own recovery?
